Ridgeview Blanc de Blancs 2016 - English Sparkling Wine. A stunning, rich gold colour with silvery highlights, this wine shows classic citrus zest aromas alongside vintage-specific tropical notes of lychee and pineapple. The palate is balanced by a complex hazelnut and toasted brioche character with a gentle hint of spice.

A ripe, rounded body complements the bright acidity and elegant mousse. There is a saline minerality that lingers long on the finish.
